Let Alice Read Alone

After Percy had fun reading the book with Alice, he was a little embarassed from her learning most of his past in a fantasy story, so he thought they had enough fun for today. But since he knew Alice had actually enjoyed reading the book, even if she found it a little dumb, Percy decided to let her read whatever she wanted, and hopefully choose something better than his old adventures, so that way he wouldn't be more embarassed by the things she could learn about him.

"Okay, i'm just going to leave... you can keep reading whatever you want though, i'll just leave you alone..." - Percy said as he akwardly tried to stand up, and walk away from Alice, who was still excited for the book she read, but more excited by the idea of reading others. And even though she appreciated the thought, she just chuckled at Percy from his reaction, before turning her attention to other books, that were hopefully even more entertaining than the first one.

So to spoil Alice a little, and mostly leave the embarassing situation he was stuck in, Percy let Alice explore the library for a while, and pick another book to read. And while Percy just stared at Alice from a distance, he started thinking of everything they did today, and trying to figure out if his plan went well or not. It was clear Alice was going to have fun now, and even though it seemed like she enjoyed the book too, Percy thought he could have done more with her, just that he didn't know what. He felt like letting her read more books was a good choice, but he couldn't help but think about all the possibilities he had, and that he could have wasted.

And since Alice was taking a long time to enjoy her books, Percy started planning what they would do for the next time they could hang out like this, because of course he had to spend more time with her. Even though today his plan didn't work out as he intended, Percy was looking forward for new, and fun ideas to make Alice grow fond of him, or at least get closer together.

But after much thinking, Percy noticed Alice had stopped reading, and seemed to be very happy without his presence, which made him smile. And now that Alice had her fun with her books, Percy knew his job was done, he got what he wanted, and it was time to leave.

Percy didn't even need to talk with Alice to know she ended up having a great time reading alone, and while they walked out of the library, they exchanged a few akward stares, as they didn't know what they would do next. Although Percy did have something to say, specially after seeing how Alice seemed eager to have more fun, but it unfortunately involved saying goodbye for today.
